Did You Know?
Banjul sits on St Mary's Island, a low sandbank at the mouth of the Gambia river, and has been losing population for decades as residents move to the mainland. The Gambia is Africa's smallest mainland country, a strip either side of the river.
The clock: Banjul keeps UTC+0. The country is almost entirely surrounded by Senegal, which keeps the same hour.
Banjul lies at 16.6°W. Its time zone, UTC+0, is built around the prime meridian (0°). The 16.6° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 66 minutes ahead of the sun: solar noon arrives at about 13:06 rather than 12:00. The zone holds UTC+0 all year — there is no daylight saving here.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 12h 55m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 11h 20m. The swing between them is 1h 35m. Inside the tropics the day length stays within a narrow band all year.
The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Banjul the sun comes up earliest on 2 June at 06:38, while the latest sunset waits until 11 July at 19:38. The equation of time is what separates them: the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt move solar noon back and forth by several minutes over the year.
The sky stays usably light for a while after the sun goes down. In Banjul that civil twilight runs about 21 minutes at the equinox.
